“ Words are things; and a small drop of ink,
Falling like dew upon a thought, produces
That which makes thousands, perhaps millions think.”
– Lord Byron (1788-1824)

This rich and inspirational collection of famous words is one that should be in every home library. The sentiments expressed within A Small Drop of Ink are inspirational, uplifting, and often powerful enough to make thousands think and change their perception of life and the world.

“ God wove a web of loveliness
Of clouds and stars and birds,
But made not a thing at all
So beautiful as words.”
– Anna H. Branch (1875–1937)
